pulseaudio works fine on it

what problem r u having OP and what kernel r u on

kernel is 4.8

Basically, sound worked fine, in pavucontrol I could see my output and everything. No changes, reboot the system, no changes. Open up pavucontrol, internal audio output gone, can only see the soundcard's HDMI output (unplugged). Sound doesn't work.

Tried doing pulseaudio --kill and pulseaudio --start, no dice. Still only see the soundcard's HDMI output.

I also had a problem with my HDMI output, on 4.4. When I updated to 4.8.6 it started working. My HDMI output used to also say unplugged. Try changing your resolution and changing it back, that's how I fixed it before I updated.

It only happened to me after my display would turn off though. Could be a similar bug.

But I don't want sound out of my HDMI, I want it out of the headphone jack of the internal audio card. Which worked fine before, and the internal audio card output showed up in pavucontrol. After the reboot the internal audio card output was gone and I was left with only HDMI.

HDMI says unplugged because it is, I'm using DVI for video.

Oh. I would still try updating your kernel to at least latest stable. Another possibility is your soundcard died or got unseated somehow. Check BIOs and reseat PCI card maybe

I had to install alsa-utils and unmute the output in alsamixer.

Why would default be mute?

PulseAudio/ALSA still garbage.

I have a bluetooth headset and when I walk over 10 feet away from my computer and come back, my audio is desynced. I mean, I have a keybind that runs "pasuspender true" which resyncs the audio but this doesn't happen on Winblows.

which distro?

Debian testing.

It works now. I have the same problem on every distro I tried. Alsa mutes the output for some reason from time to time.

Might actually be an ALSA thing. Have you looked at alsamixer?

have you tried ubuntoe

>poettering
Thats why

Yeah, I had to install alsa-utils and unmute the output. I assumed (incorrectly) that if I don't have alsamixer it wouldn't mute it.

Then because of the aforementioned assumption I didn't think the problem was muted output (when it actually was).
